Electric Rain Swift 3D Version 5 Datasheet
Swift 3D provides unrivaled vector rendering quality and output styles and is the only 3D technology to offer direct integration with Adobe Flash. Swift 3D's toolset and interface allow anyone to quickly create 3D content while providing a full set of advanced tools to grow into. With vector, raster and video export capabilities, Swift 3D provides the Flash and motion graphics design industry with a powerful and easy-to-use 3D solution that delivers high quality results for an affordable price.
High Quality Vector Rendering
Electric Rain's vector rendering engine (RAViX) is a proprietary technology that converts 3D geometry into shaded polygons to recreate the 3D image in a non-photo realistic 2D vector format. Swift 3D meets the needs of the highest quality 3D vector designs with perobject render styles, pen-style outlines, transparency, reflections, complex shadows, and advanced specularity. Swift 3D exports 3D scenes to the following file formats: SWF - Adobe Flash SWFT - Swift 3D Layer format for Flash MX or later versions JPEG, BMP, PNG, TIF, TGA AVI, Quicktime, FLV (Flash Video) includes vector style to video formats EPS Encapsulated Postscript AI - Adobe Illustrator .3ds Autodesk 3ds max SVG Scalable Vector Graphics XAML WPF and Silverlight
Easy-to-Use and Affordable
Quickly create impressive 3D Flash vector animations with no 3D experience using Swift 3D's easy-to-use and intuitive interface. Swift 3D was built with the Flash designer in mind and shares many similar features found in 2D illustrator programs, making the learning curve transparent to 2D artists and multimedia web designers. Professional quality drag-and-drop galleries will expedite design time and prototyping. Swift 3D comes with an extensive 3D model library as well as pre-built animation, material, and lighting galleries that create professional results without the steep learning curve of other 3D applications. Swift 3D provides the most value for the price. With regular pricing of $295 USD and upgrade pricing starting at $79 USD, no other 3D application provides the feature set and quality of Swift 3D.
Simple and Powerful Modeling
Swift 3D supplies simple primitive objects such as a cube, sphere, or a cone that can be combined together using a building block approach towards modeling or as a starting point for creating more complex models. The Lathe and Extrusion Editors quickly allow designers to create 3D objects using familiar 2D design tools, such as a Bezier Pen. When youre ready to take your 3D design skills to the next level, Swift 3D offers 3D mesh manipulation and animation tools that allow you to create just about anything you can imagine! From beginner to advanced user, Swift 3D provides every level of user with tools they can manage, allowing users to rapidly turn their 3D design concepts into reality.

Swift 3D Version 5 Key Features
Adobe Flash Integration Flash Importer Streamlines Workflow: Swift 3D automatically installs a file importer into Flash that enables Flash to import Swift 3D's proprietary.SWFT format, which streamlines the workflow between Swift 3D and Flash and provides enhanced layering features and control over imported 3D scenes. Swift 3D renderings are automatically inserted into the Flash scene or library. SmartLayer Technology for Compositing: SmartLayer technology is built into the.SWFT format, which separates a 3D scene into layers upon import into Flash, allowing for compositing control. Separated Layers include: Still objects and objects in motion Fill styles and outlines Shadows, speculars, reflections and transparency Composite multiple output styles into a single file and combine low-bandwidth vector animations with realistic raster images. Extensive Material and Texture Control Drag-and-drop material and texture gallery for easy application to objects Vector materials Raster materials Bitmap textures Procedural textures Gradient and bump map textures Adjust material transparency and reflection Precision Application Controls: Apply materials and textures to defined surface areas Manipulate applied textures on objects Import 3DS models with bitmap textures Choose texture display modes in Viewports Import Popular 2D / 3D Vector Formats 2D vector artwork from AI and EPS files 3D scenes and models from 3DS and DXF files - 3DS models with bitmap textures System Requirements & Pricing Windows: Windows 98, NT, 2K, ME, XP, Vista Min: 600 Mhz processor Rec: 1.2 Ghz processor Min: 128 MB RAM Rec: 512 MB RAM 50 MB available disk space 1024 x 768 monitor resolution High Quality Vector Rendering Vector Rendering Options: Outlines with line weight and color control Render hidden lines (Wire frame) Single color fill (Cartoon Shading) Average color fill Two color fill Four color fill Full color fill Area gradient shading Mesh gradient shading Advanced specularity with depth control Realistic overlapping shadows from multiple light sources Reflections Multiple styles with single render pass Vector Rendering Formats: SWF, AI, EPS, SVG, XAML SWFT (Swift 3D - Flash MX Importer) All vector styles to all video formats Photo Realistic Raster Rendering Raster Rendering Options: Photorealistic ray tracing engine Transparency Reflections and refractions Overlapping shadows Advanced specularity Bitmap textures Procedural textures Raster Rendering Formats: JPEG, BMP, PNG, TIF, TGA SWF (per-frame cropping) AVI, Quicktime, FLV video formats Professional Quality Galleries Pre-built Drag and Drop Galleries Animation gallery (50 animations) Material gallery (vector and raster) Environment gallery Lighting scheme gallery (animated /moods) Model gallery - 3D, Extrusion and Lathe Bevel gallery Save your own Robust Animation Features Pre-built Drag and Drop Animations: Over 50 professionally built Spins, Flybys, Deformations, and Path animations Easy to use drag-and-drop application from the gallery to a 3D object Animation Options and Control: Full-featured keyframe timeline Automated timeline scaling and tweening Animate objects, lights, materials & cameras Animate non-uniform scaling of objects Animate reshaping of standard primitives Shape morphing timeline in Extrusion and Lathe Editors Object hierarchy with parent child relationships Mesh morphing animation in Advanced Modeler Animate 3D objects along Bezier Path Keyframe easing controls Viewport Control Options Camera Views: Front, back, left, right, top, bottom, and perspective Drawing / Shading Modes: Texture, smooth, flat, and wire frame Open GL viewport rendering Hardware acceleration (10x faster viewport rendering) Framing: frame all, frame all objects, frame selection Show: animated paths, hidden objects, pivot points, parent-child relations Quick Preview and Fast Rendering Full render and animation preview window Wire frame progress indicator Frame level render controls Vector rendering through RAViX III engine Automatic vector optimization Raster rendering through EMO ray tracing engine
